Nexus and Continuity Choke-input Monoblock Amplifier
Forget the technobabble and buzzword bingo for a sec. Heres what Tyr is: a monstrous, old-skool, crazy heavy, over-the-top mono speaker amplifier. It uses the best of todays and yesterdays technologies to create something totally uniqueand It has enough power to run almost anything.

Beyond Overbuilt
55 lbs. 12 lb choke. 160,000uf filter capacitance. 24 150W Toshiba output devices. 7 internal power supply rails, including HV boost rails that uses unique discrete CFP regulators. Sounds like overkill? It is. Tyr is our most insane amplifier ever, designed for driving difficult speakers without breaking a sweat.

Unique Nexus and Continuity Topology
Tyr is the ultimate expression of both Nexus and Continuity. In other words, this is a balanced, differential amplifier with a unique discrete, current-feedback gain stage, coupled with Continuity output topology that eliminates transconductance droop. In Tyr, weve refined Continuity even further, resulting in a cooler-running amplifier.

Back to the Past
One of the keys to Tyrs performance is its huge inductorliterally the same size as the power transformer. This custom-made inductor is the choke in the choke-input power supply. This is a super old-skool technique you dont see anymore, because chokes cost a mint and some people think banks of capacitors are more visually impressive.

Intelligent Oversight and Convenience
Like all of our amplifiers, Tyr is managed by a microprocessor running custom firmware. It monitors all operational parameters, from bias to temperature to DC, and protects the amplifier in case of any fault, for near-bulletproof reliability. Add the ability to put the amplifier into low-power standby mode on the front panel and switchable balanced and SE inputs, and Tyr is our most convenient amp ever.
